We are about to get back home from a road trip to Memphis, TN. It has been a fun trip and Bubbles came with us.
On the way up we stopped in Huntsville, AL, to visit an old friend of Alex. He and his family met us at the space museum there which was a fun visit.
Checking out the Earth quake simulator.
One of rides at the space museum. Alex, Gabriel, Marlee and Noah went on it. Rafael was unfortunately too short.
Speaking at a family conference called Culture Proof. We would all participate, the kids has their own activities and speakers.
We arrived a couple of days early and had a chance to explore Memphis a little. The boys were very impressed with the Bass Pro Shop built as a giant pyramid but unfortunately the city was very run down over all. A lot of homeless people and things thst were not maintained.
Crossing the bridge over to Mud Island.
We walked the whole way from the beginning of the river to end, where it enters the Mexican Golf.
And then we had a lot of fun exploring the giant letters :-)
The walk back to the car felt long. It was so hot and we had run out of water. It felt so good to go in the pool when we got back to the hotel.
There was a big storm during the night so it was wet and muddy in the woods the next day. The river was moving pretty fast with all the water. We had a fun walk.
Every so often there was a sign like this. Makes me wonder if the risk for crime is big on this little path…
